Seeking the sacred
The Hierophant tells you to follow your spiritual intuition.
The human instinct is to connect to something bigger – a divine insight that helps to make sense of it all.
We all carry the supernatural ambitions of our ancestors. Whereas the High Priestess represents a mysterious future as yet unrevealed, the Hierophant brings antecedent inspiration from those who came before us.
Forge your own path, yes, but also learn from the wisdom of the ages.
Upright:
Don’t let distaste for traditional religious institutions prevent you from connecting from the spirit of community. It is medicine.
Reversed:
You’ve been following the crowd but are no longer comfortable with the way the herd is running. It’s time to go your own way.
